It would be type O with parrellel ribs and a oval cover with no cut in's where the axle tubes are, and the cover is smooth with the buldge for the ring gear, also on the yoke it has the bolts with straps (doesn't have the U-shaped block) it also has c-clip axles.

Chevelle used the 8.2 Chevy rear through '72 in lower torque applications. If it's a 10 bolt rear & original in a '70-72 Monte/Chevelle/or Elcamino it should be an 8.2 Chevy c-clip rear. A very few late '72 Elcamino's received bolt-in axle 8.5 rears & they received a shorter driveshaft from the factory to make this set-up fit.

Note:

8.5 c-clip A-body rears were not used until '73 models in Chevrolet products & in occasional Pontiac A-bodys when plant ran out of certain ratio bolt-in axle 8.5 A-body rears.
